Artiste Reindeer Bag

Hello! Rachel here again with a fun little holiday treat bag. You may remember THIS post with my owl bag for Halloween? Well, I decided to use the same bag to make a Reindeer for Christmas! Isn't it cute?

It was super easy to make with the Artiste cartridge! I used the bag from page 77, cut at 4 1/2", and the leaf shapes from page 54 for the ears. For the antlers, I used the Accent 1 scroll shape from page 43, cut at 2". The eyes and nose are simply circles cut at 1/2", 3/4", and 1" from page 48.


After inking all the edges, I put it together and added a Hook and Loop dot under the nose to make it easy to fill with some yummy Christmas treats.

For a final touch, I attached a strip of a zip strip border from Pear and Partridge, a cranberry grosgrain ribbon bow, and a punched holly sprig. If I had more time, I would add some Red Glitz Glitter glue or Liquid Glass to the nose to make it shine!

Happy Crafting!
